Alaska is home to the largest remaining population of gray wolves in the United States. Some 7,000 to 11,000 wolves roam the state in habitats as diverse as barren arctic tundra and lush temperate rainforests. In Alaska as elsewhere, wolves play an essential role in maintaining healthy prey populations and biodiversity in the ecosystems they inhabit. They are also vital to the state’s tourism economy. People from all over the world come to Alaska for the rare opportunity to see a wild wolf.
